2000 miles for confirming email address

Hi all

Apologies if you already know this.

I received a flyer in the mail last night inviting me to update my email address and in return receive 2000 BMI miles.

The offer only runs until 20 March and although there is a security code to enter (1690), it is not specific to my account as friends and family have used in already.

The website is flybmi.com/updatedetails

Friends and family may have used it, but if recent history is repeated, bmi will only pay out to the specific invitees.

Thanks for this. I didn't get the invite but put the link in through Google Chrome rather than IE and worked a treat! Cheers - cheesy emoticon
